It is surprising how few of our farms and homes are named yet it is a feature of attractiveness that could easily be taken ad van* ta^e of since there is no consid* ^eration of cost idyolved in it. A name for our home or farm gives it a special individuality. Our horses, cows, dogs and other stock very often have their names and it is proper that they should. The many friends of F. E. Shufor|i take leasure in announcing that he is a, candi date for Sheriff of Transylvania bounty, subject to the action of the Democratic primaries and county convention! ^ For Register of Deeos. The many freends of N. A. Miller wish to announce him as a candidate for the office of Register of Deeds for Transylva nia county, subject to the action of the democratic primaries and county conven tion. Many Voters. next Sheriff will be a democrst I but the farm or house for. a gen eration or more may^ simply be called the Jones place or Smith farm according to the title of the present or past owner who hap pened to impress his individual ity on the community. There is such a wide field of choipe in naoding the farm or house that it would seem that any one could be suited although the name should carry some special fitness as to the locality or surroundings. Woods, trees, mountains, hills, lawns or fields or even the birds might be involved in the name. For the benefit of those who might wish to sel^ a name we suggest a few of ^ the many that could be selected. Oakwood, Edgewood, Beach wood. The Oaks, The Maples, The poplars. Chest* n ut Hill, The Pines, Deep Springs, Rock Spr^ings, Crystal Springs, Lakewood, Lake View, River View, Rose Lawn, Hillcrest, Sun ny Slope, Clover Mead, Robbins Rest, Idlewild, etc. Nearly all large land^ owners or men of wealth name their homes or farms as the case may be and all who own homes might well follow their example in this re spect. An appropriate name for a place will add a tojt not to be attained in any oilier 'way. If we select a name for our place character Stic of it we will often* take more interest in it and en deavor to make the surround ings in keeping with the name. Thanking my many friends for their confidence and support in the past, I take this means of announcing that I will be a candidate for renomination at the demo- crati c primaries and county convention for^the office of Register of Deeds.

Wickersham framed this bill after a conference with six rail road presidents. Wall street knew long before the public ap pearance of the bill tiiat it would be so drawn as to annul that fea ture of the Sherman anti trust law which prevents ^ mergers. Railroad interests ^bought t-and sold stock on the strength of their advance information. It is not plain as yet who supplied Wall street-with- information as to the kind of a bHl Wickersham would draft. Had the bill become a law as prepared ^ the attorney general it would have practically de stroyed iall that has been accom plish^ in the last twenty years to give the government some measure of control over the rail- 0 roads of the country. No attorney general of the United States has ever been re vealed in just the position Mr. Wickersham now occupies. Instead of having drawn a bill that would tend to place greater safe guards about the rights of the people, as might naturally be expected from a public officei* who is receiving a salary on the assumption that his office is giv ing such protection to the peo ple, Wickersham has been charged on the floor of the Sen ate with having attempted to take from the masses even such in adequate safe guards as they now enjoy, while at the same time giving the corporate interests the right to merge and* do other things that th& Sherman law has forbidden them ^f^om doing. At the'time of Wickersham’s appointment it wa»s^ aver-i?ed that he had been sheeted by Presi dent Taft in deference to the wishes of the corporations of the country, who had spent money and coerced workingmen to vote the republican tjcket, and who demanded as co:ppensation for this service the pj*ivilege of nam ing the attorne7 general. The feverish interest of special privilege in this r office may be realized at full value when it is understood that the attorney general is in absolute charge of the prosecuting machinery of the government. Whether Wickersham’s ap pointment really was the Jesuit of a pre-election arrangement or not, the trusts have tad no occa sion to be dissatisfied with the President’s selection. Whenever the rights of the people and special privilege come into con flict, Mr. Wickersham' decides favorably to the corporate inter ests and against the people. Some assert that Mr. Wicker sham leans toward the corpor ations because of his tempera ment, and others attribute his at titude to force of habit, he hav ing long been a corporation law yer in New York. Whatever the reason, the records of the Attor ney General’s office show that Wickershan’s opinions' are in- varably favorable to the big cam paign /fund contributing >cor potations.
